5 large carrots (or the equivalent in little ones!)
1 onion
tbsp butter
tbsp olive oil
1 vegetable stock cube
1 tbsp flour
1 cup water

Peel the carrots (if you like them peeled) and chop into rounds.  Finely chop the onion.  Add all the ingredients to a saucepan and stir well.  Heat gently for around 40 mins with the lid on, stirring occasionally.  If it gets dry or starts to stick, add a bit more water and keep a close eye on it.  Its ready when the carrots are done as you like them and are surrounded by a thick buttery sauce.

This is a fantastic, quick and easy dish.  Non carrot eating toddlers (and grandparents) tend to like it.  Serve as a side dish when you have rice or mash based meals as the carrots are tender and come in a lovely buttery sauce.  Delicious!
